Geocache Description:

This is a themed cache, all items are Science Fiction related. We request that if you take any of these items, please leave something similar.

To get to this cache from Las Vegas, take SR160 (Blue Diamond exit on I-15) west to Pahrump. Turn left (south) on Homestead road (intersection with gas station on right). Follow Homestead road all the way until it turns into a dirt path (on your way you might like to stop and check out the "tourist info" booth, quite entertaining). Along this road you will also pass the home of Art Bell, just look for the anntennas and the large satellite dish. This is the path that will take you to a dry lake bed. From there follow your GPS.
The path is a little rough in some spots, but while we were placing the cache a few other people were out there in a little hatchback and a four door Buick.
The cache is a large black tool case. The latches are busted, so it is kept closed by the combo lock. Below are clues for the combo, and please lock the cache when you are done with it.

Combo hints:
First digit: Number of the StarTrek movie in which they travel back in time to retrieve whales.
Second digit: The total number of planned StarWars episodes.
Third Digit: The number of appendages (hands and arms) cut off in the original trilogy of StarWars movies.

Have fun!
